To find out how much more Sandi paid for the Fuji apples than the Golden Delicious apples, we need to calculate the difference in cost per pound and then multiply it by the number of pounds of each kind Sandi bought.
First, let's determine the difference in cost per pound:
Cost of Fuji apples per pound = $1.29
Cost of Golden Delicious apples per pound = $0.89
Difference in cost per pound = $1.29 - $0.89 = $0.40
Now, we need to calculate the total amount Sandi paid for each type of apple:
Total cost of Fuji apples = Cost per pound * Number of pounds
Total cost of Fuji apples = $1.29 * 312 = $402.48
Total cost of Golden Delicious apples = Cost per pound * Number of pounds
Total cost of Golden Delicious apples = $0.89 * 312 = $277.68
Finally, we can find the amount Sandi paid more for the Fuji apples than the Golden Delicious apples:
Amount more paid for Fuji apples = Total cost of Fuji apples - Total cost of Golden Delicious apples
Amount more paid for Fuji apples = $402.48 - $277.68 = $124.80
Therefore, Sandi paid $124.80 more for the Fuji apples than the Golden Delicious apples.
